| |
Dateline: 11/9/03 Dr. Leroy H. Carhart is in the news again as he fights to continue killing fetuses late
in pregnancy. What is Carhart's background? Recently, prolifers videotaped a woman being removed from Carhart's clinic in an ambulance.
They have no details on the woman, but assume that she must have suffered an abortion
injury: Numerous older news articles about Carhart cover allegations raised by his
clinic administrator. The allegations included that Carhart: The clinic administrator who first reported these allegations also alleged
that Carhart left an abortion patient on the table to go outside and throw
rocks at the procedure room window on October 23, 1990. This was when Carhart
was doing abortions at Women's Medical Center of Nebraska. Carhart has taken a leadership role in abortion. According to news sources,
a semi-retired ophthalmologist and a pathologist have approached Carhart
to learn abortion techniques. Carhart was hired to perform abortions at
Planned Parenthood in Bloomington, IN. (Sources: Chronicle/Examiner 9-19-93; Detroit News 9-5-93;

state that 4 of his 11 horses, and two dogs, were confiscated by the humane
society due to neglect. An officer of the humane society said she had not
obtained a warrant because the animals were in danger of death. She also
said that the horses were in danger of starvation even though several large
bales of inferior-quality hay were outside a fence, just beyond the reach
of the horses. Some of the older horses had bite marks on their backs indicating
that younger horses had driven them away from what food was available,
and that the most skeletal of the horses, a 20 to 30-year-old female, had
to be coaxed from a barn that was a foot deep in mud and excrement. The
humane society spokesperson also said that Carhart "wasn't too happy"
that she had taken the horses, and that he threatened to file charges against
her. (Source: Bellevue Leader 7-25-92) National Right to Life is the nation's largest pro-life organization, with affiliates in all 50 states and over 3,000 local chapters nationwide.

I'd say we can at least be grateful he's no longer being paid by our tax dollars, but I'm sure a huge chunk of his paycheck still comes out of our pockets somehow. For an example of how Henshaw did his work at the CDC, see Hiding the Bodies from Abortion Deaths.
